This was so funny I just had to share
My students were finishing up a test when one of them said, "AWWWW!!! Student X said the 'C' word!!" My jaw dropped! Then my co-teacher said, "I heard you talking, now what did you say?" Then I ask her, "Did he say C U Next Tuesday?" and my co-teacher said, "I think so!" Then one of the other students spilled the beans and said, "He said cocaine." That was the "C" word.
We had a conversation about cocaine and why it's not appropriate school discussion, but they were so up in arms about it, that it made me laugh.
